On Friday evening, Trent Reznor sat down with Jon Pareles (music critic for the NYT) for a lengthy, candid interview about his work on The Social Network soundtrack, Nine Inch Nails, How To Destroy Angels, and his creative process. The interview runs 1h15m, and is available for download in both video and audio versions.

Note: the video was captured live from the online stream, and has a few audio sync issues which quickly rectify themselves.

You Should See The Other Guy: the person who captured and posted the video acknowledges the sync problems in that "captured by..." link above. He says he worked with the video to get it synched as well as he could, but the medium from which it was captured introduced the problems in the first place.posted by hippybear at 12:49 PM on January 9, 2011

Elvis Costello seems to either make a cameo in or invade the soundtrack of 75% of all movies. It makes everything suck as bad as that original Social Network cut. I predict that some Ted Turner-like figure will "colorize" classic movies in the future by digitally erasing all this crooning indie dorkpop and replacing it with harrowing electronic dirges as the Good Lord intended.posted by dgaicun at 9:30 AM on January 10, 2011
